Dishes traditionally made in such pots are known throughout the [[Balkan cuisine|BalkanBalkans]]<nowiki/>s as a traditional autumn vegetable stew, but are most closely associated with [[Romanian cuisine|Romania]] and [[Bulgarian cuisine|Bulgaria]], where it is called [[ghivetch]].<ref name="farrington WAPO13oct1985">{{Cite news|last=Farrington|first=Sharon|date=13 October 1985|title=Romanian Vegetable Melange|language=en-US|worknewspaper=[[Washington Post]]|url=https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/lifestyle/food/1985/10/13/romanian-vegetable-melange/b9f35348-d35b-4c37-be82-cc8a08911882/|access-date=10 January 2022|issn=0190-8286}}</ref><ref name="sheratonWSJ3sept2015">{{Cite news|last=Sheraton|first=Mimi|author-link=Mimi Sheraton|date=3 September 2015|title=Recipes for Getting the Best Return on a Surplus of Vegetables|language=en-US|work=[[Wall Street Journal]]|url=https://www.wsj.com/articles/recipes-for-getting-the-best-return-on-a-surplus-of-vegetables-1441306331|access-date=10 January 2022|issn=0099-9660}}</ref> The names of the dish [[đuveč]] in ex-Yugoslavia, [[ghivetch]] in Bulgaria and Romania,<ref name="farrington WAPO13oct1985" /> and the Greek dish [[giouvetsi]] derive from güveç, although they are not always cooked in earthenware güveç pots.{{Citation needed|date=January 2022}}
 
The [[Turkish cuisine|Turkish]], [[Romanian cuisine|Romanian]] and [[Balkan cuisine|Balkan]] oven-baked [[meat]] and vegetable [[stew]] similar to [[ratatouille]] is called by various names including '''güveç''' and '''đuveč''' ({{lang-tr|güveç}} {{IPA-tr|ɟyˈvetʃ|}}, {{lang-bg|гювеч}} {{IPA-bg|ɟuˈvɛt͡ʃ|}}, {{lang-bs|đuveč}}, {{lang-mk|ѓувеч}} {{IPA-mk|ˈɟuvɛt͡ʃ|}}, {{lang-sr|ђувеч}} {{IPA-sh|dʑǔʋetʃ|}}, {{lang-ro|ghiveci}}, {{IPA-ro|ɡiˈvetʃʲ|}}). It is made with meat, [[Olive (fruit)|olives]], [[tomato]]es, [[Edible mushroom|mushrooms]], [[onion]]s, [[herb]]s, and [[spice]]s and is often served with "Balkan mixed salad", a combination of roasted [[eggplant]], sweet [[capsicum|pepper]]s, [[garlic]], tomatoes, and [[vinegar]].
 
Meats can include [[Chicken (food)|chicken]], [[pork]], [[Lamb and mutton|lamb]] or sometimes [[beef]] or [[Fish (food)|fish]] (or the meat can be omitted), while vegetables may include [[onion]], [[tomato]]es, [[Capsicum|peppers]], [[zucchini]] (courgettes), [[eggplant]], [[pea]]s, [[potato]]es, [[carrot]]s. The dish is flavoured with [[paprika]] and [[summer savoury]] and various other [[herb]]s, and may be cooked in a pan or in the oven.<ref>{{cite web|title=Serbian casserole (đuveč)|url=http://www.serbiancookbook.com/food-recipes/main-dishes/meat-meals/serbian-casserole-djuvec/|website=The Serbian Cookbook|access-date=17 December 2015}}</ref>
 
The name ''đuveč'', an earthenware [[casserole]] in which the Turkish dish đuveč is traditionally prepared, comes from the [[Turkish language|Turkish]] ''güveç'' "earthenware pot".;<ref>{{Cite web|title=güveç|url=http://www.nisanyansozluk.com/?k=g%C3%BCve%C3%A7|title=güveç|website=www.nisanyansozluk.com}}</ref> dishes include ''[[Türlü|türlü güveç]]'' and ''[[karides güveç]].''
 
Güveç dishes can be made in any type of oven-proof pan, but according to [[Paula Wolfert]] clay or earthenware pots are preferred for the "earthy taste and aroma" they impart.<ref name=":0" /><ref name="zaman" />
